Skins, Series 2
Cassie:
Is it possible to truly enjoy power?
Lawes:
Sorry?
Cassie:
'S question three.
Lawes:
I'm not supposed to help you with your exam.
Cassie:
I stopped eating, and then everyone had to do what I said. That was powerful.
Lawes:
And did you enjoy that?
Cassie:
I think it was the happiest time of my life. But I had to stop before I died, because... otherwise it wasn't fun.... You wouldn't understand.
Lawes:
You're wrong, Cassie.
Cassie:
Did you cut yourself, too?
Lawes:
People will do anything to-- People will do anything to work out why they feel bad, won't they?
Cassie:
And did you? Work it out?
Lawes:
Like I said, I'm not supposed to help you with your exam.
Cassie:
I want you to tell me!
Lawes:
What?
Cassie:
How to stop bad things happening.
Lawes:
Doesn't work, does it? That's why you have to start eating again.
Cassie:
... I fell in love.
Lawes:
Ah, love. Why cut yourself when you can be in love?
Cassie:
You think passing an exam will make me happy?
Lawes:
Cassie, passing exams generally only makes life more complicated, but there's lots of other stuff that makes things bearable, and you don't even have to use a knife.
Cassie:
...Like?
Lawes:
Disco.
